Vermont Veteran’s Group-ALL are welcome. Not just a Vets meeting.

Types of AA Meetings

Discussion: In Vermont, AA discussion meetings give all members the opportunity to share their thoughts on a specific, addiction-related topic. Leaders will organize and guide the meetings, often referring back to AA texts such as the Big Book or Daily Reflections.

Open: Open AA meetings in Vermont are available to anyone in the community. Attendees do not have to be members of the program to listen and observe. These meetings are open to alcoholics and nonalcoholics alke, including anyone who wants to learn more about AA to support a friend or loved one in their recovery journey.

Speaker: AA members in Vermont often hear motivational speakers to strengthen their resilience against alcoholism. These Speakers are usually AA alumni and use a mixture of reason, faith, humor, emotional appeal, and personal charm to connect with audiences.

Wheelchair Access: In Vermont, non-ambulatory clients may attend their AA meetings. Centers provide wheelchair access with exterior ramps, designated parking, and open floor plans for safe navigation in meeting halls, restrooms, and amenities.
